The green canister represents the inert training units which duplicate the delivery system for live products.

By following the instructions, operators can refill the MK-46 V or H in minutes and be ready to continue their mission.

Poor storage conditions will significantly reduce the shelf life of these products resulting in the replacement of the canisters sooner than necessary or the possible use of defective products. Humidity and heat are the two most damaging factors that destroy OC canisters.

The canisters and grenades should be stored in a controlled atmosphere with temperatures between 60 degrees Fahrenheit to 75 degrees Fahrenheit with less than 60% relative humidity.

Canisters should remain sealed in their shipping containers until they are to be used or placed in a duty belt/holster.

Never store canisters in the trunk of a car for prolonged periods. The heat may cause the canisters to build pressure and eventually release propellant and possibly agent or OC.

Stored munitions should be inspected for physical integrity and a representative sample functioned twice a year. Munitions that have surpassed the warranty of 5 YEARS should be replaced.

DISPOSAL OF OC PEPPER SPRAY CANISTERS

The following information is intended only to provide general information for our customers. It is extremely important that anyone using our products comply with all applicable environmental laws and regulations. We recommend that you consult with appropriate legal counsel or governmental authorities prior to disposing of any of our chemical products.

In 1976, Congress enacted a law entitled, The Resource Conservations and Recovery Act of 1976 (RCRA). This law was intended to protect human health and the environment from imprudent disposal of “hazardous wastes.”

Outdated or otherwise unusable pyrotechnic items are considered “hazardous waste” under RCRA and are assigned the EPA hazardous waste code of D00 1 due to their ignitable characteristic. Disposal of these items must be done in accordance with all applicable Federal and/or State laws. Many states have hazardous waste management programs that are much more stringent than Federal law. For this reason, you should check with the EPA Regional Office to determine to what extent these laws apply to you.
